went visiting out of town. Some took 
in the Rochester-Toronto International 
base-bail game. Some went to the 
Woodbine races. Others to the picnic 
of the Catholic Fraternity at Silver- 
wood Park, while many preferred to 
take the opportunity to tidy up their 
home surroundings. Had the 24th 
fallen on a Saturday or Monday, 
scores of our friends would have de¬ 
serted the city for the open country.

“He cometh life a thief in he 
night” is a well known Biblical quota¬ 
tion and such seemed to be well 
verified lately, when, within almost a 
week, three of our friends had been 
snatched from our midst by the prow¬ 
ling hand of death. Hardly had the 
mortal remains of Mrs. Maxwell

he went with a B.A, diploma in 
1890 to the Massachnsetts Institute

he took up architecture, but the 
study for him proved so compre¬ 
hensive and led him into so many 
side-tracks of interest, that he wid¬ 
ened it further by entering upon 
the stuly of pictorial art at the Art 
Students’ League, New York, and 
this led him later to the pictorial in¬

PHILADELPHIA 


Unannounced the Rev. George 
Almo, Swedish missionary to the deaf, 
appeared in the procession at the 
afternoon service in All Souls’ Church 
for the Deaf on Sunday, May 28th. 
His return to Philadelphia was known 
to only a few persons, having returned 
scarcely two days before. After the 
service the people greeted him warmly. 
He rendered a hymn during the church 
service and addressed the Bible Class. 
Rev. Almo's visit to America, which 
was extended by the Immigration 
authorities, till June is now drawing to 
a close. He has been officially de¬ 
legated to represent his country at the 
International Congress on the Educa¬ 
tion of the Deaf from June 18th to 
June 23d, after which he will return 
to Sweden. 

While we still expect Rev. Almo’s 
presence here for the few weeks fol¬ 
lowing, we hope that it is not too early 
to wish him a happy termination of 
his sojourn here, and then a safe return 
to his home. And may he be equally 
or more successful in bringing much 
additional enlightenment to his brother

The exhibition of dry-points by 
Cadwallader Washburn which open¬ 
ed in the Smithsonian Building Ap 
ril 24, to continue to’May 21, is an 
event of exceptional note, because of 
the extraordinarily fine quality of 
of the work shown. 

The difference between an etching 
and a dry-point, as doubtless many 
[know, is that in the former the lines 
and that in the 


are eaten by acid 
production of the latter no acid is 
used. A dry-point, therefore, is 
closer, technically, to an engraving 
than is an etching, but tbe result 
achieved has more the appearance of 
an etching than of an engraving. 
There have not been a great many 
who have used this medium (dry 
point) with supreme skull. Muir- 
head Boneis one, Cadwallader Wash 
burn is another. Mr. Bone has 
achieved his greatest success in sub¬ 
ject compositions, Mr. Washburn in 
portraiture. Indeed, it is not an ex¬ 
aggeration to say that in some parti- 
Iculars no finer portraits have been 
produced since the days of Rem-

sonalitv. his essay on Cadwallader Washburn: 

Mr.. Washburn’s method suggests “He has attained to such mastery

Mr. Washburn does not confine ever 
himself axclusiveiy to portrait or beauty 
figure work. He etches landscapes, 
houses, streets, and alwavs with 
great individuality. To be sure, 
one mav find here and there an echo 
of a great etcher of the past, Seymour 
Haden or Whistler, but it is onlv 
sufficient to prove Mr Washburn’s 
artistic descent. “ 

Malcolm G. Salaman, one of the 
leading authorities on etching and 
other prints in Gieat Britain, had 
the following to say of Mr. Wash¬ 
burn when an exhibition of his dry- 
points was held in Paris in June, 

1928: 

“Cadwallader Washburn’s is a 
remarkable personality, compact ot 
natural independence, diffidence, sin¬ 
cerity, tenacity of ideals, and a sort 
of cosmic curiosity, and his eager¬ 
ness for adventure in strange places 
and for testing new and unfamiliar 
experiences has been amply fulfilled. 

Born in Minnesota, he comes of a 
well-known New F.ngland stock; 
his father was a Senator and great 
builder of railways, and his uncle, 
from whom he derives his Christian 
name, was a State Governor and 
pioneer in Northwestern enterprise,

opened with a beavAWdVy rendered 
solo by Mrs. C’Jiarles Wilson, entitled, 
"I Was Once Far Away From My

a very interesting sermon on the sub¬

the wBhderful works accomplished by 
our Master. God is the Master-mind of

Instead of holding it on the first 
Monday in June, as was originally 
intended, the Board of Trustees of our 
Church held its June meeting on May 
23d. Many thought it was a special 
meeting, so did not expect in to be car¬ 
ried out in the regular way. How¬ 
ever it was carriad out in the usual 
way and this was the last one until 
September, unless an emergency call is 
• made. From an observer’s point of 
view not much business was transact¬ 
ed at this meeting except in reference 
to the return again to our midst of the 
Rev. Georg Almo at the end of June. 
He has accepted the invitation to be¬ 
come our minister for at least a year.

his honor, to be held at our Church on

In the other gomes played, there 
was the ball relay between the Fresh-

kept of the score, 

A match game of water polo was 
played among the Senior-Junior- 
Sophomore combination against the 
Frosh Preps, resulted in a tie after a 
lot of water had been splashed about. 
Judges of the meet included: Messrs. 
F. H. Hughes, and Powrie Doctor 
and Miss Elizabeth Benson. 

Friday night the annual Athletic 
Association banquet was held in the 
girls’ refectory. Miss Florence 
Schornstein as president of the 
association, acted as toastmistress. 
Included on the program was Miss 
Rosell Gunderson and Mrs. Walter 
J. Krug, who gave talks, and Dr. 
Percival Hall, who besides making a 
little speech also presented the girls 
with all the awards won during the 
year. The menu was an excellent 
one and the girls, especially the 
seniors, were very reluctant to leave 
the refectory after all was over. 

The Arkansas students were plea¬ 
santly surprised to receive a visit 
from Mr. and Mrs. Nathan Zimble. 
Mr. Zimble, a graduate of Gallaudet 
in 1924, is principal of the Arkansas 
School. He was very glad to see 
Ills old pupils and to note that all 
are getting along in good shape. 

Spring dresses are in vogue. A 
galaxy of colors have suddenly 
sprung up overnight out of the girls' 
wardrobes, until there is some doubt 
if the natural scenery or their clothes 
are brighter. 


Sunday morning, June 4th, the 
students were treated to a fine lec¬ 
ture from the hands of the Rev. 
Herbert Gallaudet of New York 
City. Having the opportunity of 
being in town on business for a few 
days, the Rev. Herbert Gallaudet, 
who is the youngest son of Dr. E. 
M. Gallaudet. founder of our college, 
and now a retired minister, could 
could not resist coming back to his 
old beloved Kendall Green once 
more. 

Despite the many years he has 
occupied the pulpit, he made a 
deep impression on the students 
as being a stafinch and loyal friend 
of the college. In nis talk, in¬ 
terpreted by Dr. Hall, he told the 
students how he felt to come back 
to Kendall Green, his real home 
while a boy 

After hearing praise of the campus 
the students wondered if. after they 
graduate they too might feel the 
same way. His talk was an inspir¬ 
ing cne and so well liked that it (vas

aware of this tco. 

Sunday, June 4tli, turned out to 
be a holiday for the tracksters enter¬ 
ed in the District of Columbia A. A. 
U. Led by Captain Jimmy Rayhill, 
who won the District championship 
in the 200 meters, Bob Travis sur¬ 
prised everyone by taking third in 
800 meters. Ravhill failed to place 
in the pole vault, and Ladner only 
took third in the trials of the 100 
high hurdles, 

Rayhill, after faltering in the pole 
vault, astonished everyone when 
drawing the pole in the 200 meters 
he led all way from start to finish. 
He won in the fast time of 22.3 
seconds. Bob Travis, the most 
faithful trainer on the squad, was 
in the rear of a fast 800 meter field 
when the race started and remained 
in (he rear until the last 100 meters, 
when a strong spurt brought him up 
into third place. It was his game¬ 
ness, his inability to give in and 
call it a bad defeat, that brought 
him home into a money position, 
He carried a bronze medal home 
while Ravhill received a gold medal. 

Tom Delp failed to get anywhere in 
the shot-put, but the experience may 
do him a lot of good next year. Like¬ 
wise the case of I,adner, a steady and 
consistent plugger, who failed to stay 
in the money, but the experience may 
be of help by the time the next track 
season comes around. In any way 
you look at it, this meet was a distinct 
triumph for the Kendall Greeners and 
the name of the college has been

NEW YORK, JUNE 8, 1933 


Thirty years ago a young lad 
named Erickson from Wisconsin for 
the want of something better used to 
whittle almost anything out of soft 
wood. As he was graduating that 
year he got the idea of carving a 
wooden spade out of wood and to 
have each graduating class mount 
its class ribbons on the handle'. 
Thirty years have gone by. and each 
year on class day each succeeding 
class adds its ribbons to the spade. 
Today the spade has a huge collec¬ 
tion of satin and silk. Mr. Erick¬ 
son, now of Chicago has whittled 
another slightly larger spade and 
and donated it to theeollege, expect¬ 
ing the class of 1933 to start con¬ 
tributing its ribbons to the spade.

by invitation to surprise the young 
lady — Miss Bessie Steidman—who on 
the 25th of this month, is to he mar¬ 
ried to Mr. Moses Schnapp, the 
printer. It was a linen shower, and 
the thirty lady friends each brought 
something that will last the coming 
bride almost a lifetime. 

At six o’clock a fine supper was! 
served to all, and the conversation 
during the evening was concerning 
the coming happiness of Miss Steid¬ 
man, who in turn expressed her 
thanks to one and all. 

The remainder of the evening was 
passed off in playing the game of

some of the best players of our

There were twenty-five people at a 
surprise birthday party in honor of 
Mrs. Steven’s son at Mr. Caul’s home. 
Pinchole was played. After the game 
a beautiful birthday cake was present¬

Peter Skoglund was honored at a 
birthday party at his home on the

keep pace with progress 
constant demand for men of such 
ability today, whether they are deaf 
or hearing. 

Mere book knowledge of the trade 
is of little value to the student. 
Books cannot make him a good print¬ 
er. The inexperienced instructor 
with a mere knowledge of printing 
from reading books is a backward 
teacher and his teaching is very in¬ 
jurious as a result. The instructor 
must know the trade from actual ex¬ 
perience and then be in a position to 
train his pupils accordingly. The 
pupils should be able to know all 
branches of the trade in order to 
eventually become good printers. 

Much can he said of the import¬ 
ance of teaching the various funda¬ 
mentals of hand work. The stu¬ 
dents need the opportunity of having 
actual training under efficient in¬ 
structors. After that easier sailing 
can be looked for should heever 
use the field of mechanical work, 
or when he find himself handy as an 
all-around man. — A. £. A. in

trade. 

We strive to lead our apprentices 
to the point where they should real¬ 
ize that when being a printer, one 
must of necessity achieve importance 
in the eyes of his people. Printing 
is an honorable trade and it is the 
inevitable result of the vast amount 
of work going on all over the world. 

Printing, as a specialized trade, is 
usually the first to be mentioned as 
an advantage for the deaf to be of 
service to the public in general. Such 
is impossible with the deaf printers 
who lack most of the essential fun¬ 
damentals of the trade. It is con¬ 
ceded that machine work has
